First, thank you for the great software! I am a former EXAFSPAK user and have been really impressed by Artemis/ifeffit. It's easier to use, more flexible, and gives more reasonable errors for the fit parameters.
Well, welcome to the "family" and thanks for the kind words!
My question is about the value of the R_factor for R-space fitting. This seems to be the R_factor for the real component of the Fourier transform only although the fitting is performed on both the real and imaginary components. Is there a reason that the contribution of the imaginary component to the R_factor is not included?
A quick perusal of Matt's source code does not suggest that what you say is true. Could you be more specific as to why you think that the R-factor is computed incorrectly?
